Come with Me
Come walk with me into the night. Come to the fields with me. No man-made glitz, no city lights Taint tired eyes to see. Some say that all this grandeur vast Made self by chance and time. Come, look real close and see the past – Behold God’s forged design!…

Words Galore
Your words are as endless as sand on a shore, Strung together in books And in blogs galore. You speak them with vigor and zeal the same As if you’re vying for spots In Christendom’s fame Your words sit on tables and nightstands – piled high Proclaiming your wisdom Your…
